The Flu Doesn't Worry Me Yet

I'm really unconcerned with contracting swine flu. Everything I need to know about contagions I learned from Lance Henriksen:

"In the Middle Ages during the Black Plague, people used to gather their families — take them to the mountains — or the forest. They'd post guards encircling their camps, and they would kill anybody that appeared.

"The ones that practiced this behavior? They survived the outbreak."

i like to call it porcine influenza or hamthrax, depending on my mood.
